Ar: 1s2 2s22p6 3s23p6
(b) Valence electrons for Mg and Ar are in the same principal energy level, but Ar atom is smaller and has a greater nuclear charge. Thus, ionization energies for Mg are less than those
for Ar. Removal of third electron from Mg atom is from n = 2 level and electrons in this level
experience strong nuclear attraction.
(c) Only MgCl2 forms. Mg atoms readily lose 2 valence electrons each. Ionization energy for
third electron very high. Electron affinity for Ar is low, and ionization energies for Ar atoms are high.
